I heard Mark Davis of the all-mighty WBAP in Dallas/Fort Worth guest hosting for Rush today. He mentioned an article from "D" Magazine which had five different people reflecting on what to expect from "W" moving to the Dallas area. Davis specifically singled out golf analyst David Feherty's contribution, which I was inspired to hear:
From my own experience visiting the troops in the Middle East, I can tell you this, though: despite how the conflict has been portrayed by our glorious media, if you gave any U.S. soldier a gun with two bullets in it, and he found himself in an elevator with Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, and Osama bin Laden, there’s a good chance that Nancy Pelosi would get shot twice, and Harry Reid and bin Laden would be strangled to death. I’ve never met a soldier who didn’t love this president and this country, and I’ve met a bunch of them, at home and abroad, in hospitals and in theater. At Walter Reed, Bethesda Naval Medical Center, and the Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio, I have visited dozens of patients, and I always ask of them before I leave: “What do you want to do when you get out?†No matter how broken or burned, or how many limbs they are missing, they give only one answer: “I want to go back. I want to rejoin my team, to finish our mission.†They are rightfully proud of what they have done and want nothing more than to be with their brothers and sisters in arms, because they know the consequences if their job is left unfinished. Right here on American soil, we will end up with unqualified people having to do the job they have been doing over there so incredibly well, and with such extraordinary compassion. The fact is, Americans in America have been safe since 9/11, almost the whole length of G2’s term as president, and for that we should be thankful.
So I think I’m okay with my new neighbors. I’ve met George the First and the great Barbara a few times and have enjoyed their company immensely. I don’t think the apple fell too far away from the tree. G2 loves to ride bikes, and so do I. Maybe I could get a job in the Secret Bike Service, as the official drafter to No. 43. I’ve already taken a couple of vehicular bullets from behind (experiences I’ve chronicled in this magazine), so the safest place to ride in Dallas is apparently in front of me.
Call me, Mr. Prez. Your dad has Jim Nantz’s number, and now that you can’t surreptitiously listen in on my cell phone calls anymore, Nantz can get ahold of me for you. I’m just around the corner, and I promise not to do any dry-humping, although I can’t speak for my much-loved mound of hound, Ziggy, who is the worst beagle in Texas. You might want to have Laura put Miss Beazley up if I do happen to drop by to, you know, visit.
David Feherty is a golf analyst for CBS and the author of four books, including, most recently, An Idiot for All Seasons.

You write: "From my own experience visiting the troops in the Middle East, I can tell you this, though: despite how the conflict has been portrayed by our glorious media, if you gave any U.S. soldier a gun with two bullets in it, and he found himself in an elevator with Nancy Pelosi....Nancy Pelosi would get shot twice..." That is some kind of sick, dude. Advocating the deaths of people who you disagree with politically, whichever party you belong to, is next door to treason in my opinion.

I guess that this DUmmie is unaware that Obama has reauthorized the Patriot Act and has even added to it.

There they go, jumping to baseless conclusions again...

Feherty is pretty well known as a smart-ass, so I suspect he was just making a funny there.

In a show of Iraqi support, Bush & Cheney to walk across Iraq with nothing but water and tents.
Dumbass.

Oh man, this is one of many reasons it's too bad our old home crashed and had to be rebuilt from scratch; there was just so much good stuff there.
I remember when the JohnYossarianToad got mausoleumed, and what a barrel of laughs it was at our old home, but I myself can't remember why.

And it is for that reason the troops hate people such as the desiccated, mummified beauty queen as well as Madame Speaker.

Typical primitive. The right hand never knew what the left hand was doing, or at least pretended like it didn't.

Frank? Wasn't he the one who went on a diatribe against DU and then dared Skimmer to ban him and Skinner just posted back "Ok" and banned him on the spot? :lmao:
